MATCH PLAY - TEAM
World Archery Judge’s Training Aid – 2013
What is the Team Match Play?
The team match play differs from the individual match
play by having three archers acting as one unit, shooting
one by one within a short time frame, and who are
depending on each other as “a team”.
The team match play consists of 4 ends of 6 arrows, two by
each archer, and with cumulative scores for both recurve and
compound.
16 teams proceed from the Qualification to the Elimination
round. The team match play starts from the Elimination Round.

In the Elimination Round the teams shoot
simultaneously, while in the Finals Round they shoot
alternately (World Championships)
Simultaneous shooting:
The team may rotate their
shooting according to their own preference, shooting one
or two arrows when on the line, but in the end the archers
have shot two arrows each.
Alternate shooting:
The team shoots three arrows, one
by each archer, then the time stops and the other team
shoots three arrows. This routine is then repeated to finish
the 6 arrows end.

Team Match Play
As for the individual competition the teams are seeded
according to their position in the Qualification Round.
Byes are permitted.
During match play, the position of the teams on the

Team Match Play – particular rules
The Teams (the archers) are still in their box behind the
one meter line until the start shooting signal is given.
There is a time penalty, causing the archer
moving forward to go back and “start over” if:
-An archer moves beyond the one meter line
before the start signal.
-An archer moves beyond the one meter line
before the previous archer has crossed the line
on his way back from the shooting line.
-An archer removes his arrow from the quiver
(point of the arrow visible) before he is straddling
the shooting line.

Team Match Play – particular rules
 If a time penalty is given, the judge’s procedure
will be as follows:
- He will raise the yellow card and call the name of
the team loudly and clearly.
- If the team does not react to the yellow card and
thus shoots the arrow, the judge will raise the red
card and the deduction of the highest score of the
team will take place.

Team Match Play – Shoot-off
Elimination Round
In the event of a shoot-off during the elimination round, the teams
will have one minute (60 sec.) to shoot three arrows, one archer at the
time shooting his arrow. The teams shoot simultaneously.
Finals Round
In the finals round, when the teams shoot alternately, each team
shoots one arrow alternating.
* Team A one arrow, team B one arrow etc. (A-B-A-B-A-B)

Team Match Play – Shoot-off
Scoring during a shoot-off
During a shoot-off ( elimination and finals rounds), the team
shooting the highest score wins. If the teams both have the same
score, then the team with the arrow closest to the centre wins. In
the event of a tie, then the team with the second closest to centre
arrow wins (and possibly the 3rd arrow closest to centre if
necessary).
